Athenas Polo Off To Strong Start In SCIAC

Apr 03, 2008

The women's water polo team is off to a 3-0 start in SCIAC play
after last night's 8-7 double-overtime win over Redlands. The
Athenas started the season 0-9 due to a tough non-conference
schedule which included eight Division I opponents, but the team
has won five straight and six of their last seven game.

CMS began their season turnaround with a 13-9 overtime win
against Siena College on March 19. Down by four goals
entering the fourth quarter, the Athenas outscored the Saints 8-0
in the fourth and the two overtime periods. Since that game
CMS has won four straight at Axelrood Pool including all three
SCIAC contests. The team has finished strong in all
three of those contests as well outscoring their opponents 10-3 in
the fourth quarter and overtime.

Abigayle Lin (SO, Honolulu, HI) is the team's leading scorer in
SCIAC play with eight goals while Abigail Woodruff (FR, Davis) has
been dominant in the net with 30 saves.
